The Argyle Club, San Antonio- March 2011

On March 2011 Megan Maund and Corby Houser were married at Alamo Heights United Methodist Church. Their reception was held at the gorgeous Argyle club.

It was truly a big, Texas wedding. The bride and groom's recessional song for the ceremony was The Eyes of Texas. They hosted 700 guests from all over Texas. They even hosted UT's Bevo, who was there to take pictures with everyone!

Box Invitations

Check out these super cute boxed invitations that we put together for our client whose wedding is coming up in June!

They were able to be shipped just like this.

These invitations are for a destination wedding, so the bride wanted to bring the feeling of the beach to her guests before they have even arrived.

This is a map of the island that was printed on the back of the schedule of events. It is vintage inspired and adorable.

The response card is a postcard. We sent it with the postage already on it, so the guests just needed to fill it out and send it back. So easy!


We cannot wait for the other exciting things we get to do for this truly original wedding!

La Orilla Del Rio Ballroom, San Antonio- April 2011

We had a beautiful wedding this past weekend at the La Orilla Del Rio Ballroom downtown. The bride and groom, Amber and Rob, chose some truly unique and personal touches for their big day.

The couple had a truly unique unity ceremony during the wedding. They exchanged the traditional candle lighting or sand ceremony with a Wine Box. The wooden box was handmade as a gift from the father. The wood was from the oak tree that stood in the backyard of the house Amber grew up in. It was accompanied by two glasses and a bottle of wine, which they placed inside during the ceremony. The bride, groom, and pastor each hammered one golden nail to seal the box. They will open the box in 5 years to celebrate the aging of their marriage together. This tradition is inspired by the first miracle Jesus performs in the Bible, which was turning water into wine at a wedding.

Instead of a traditional cake, they went with a tower of red velvet and cream cheese cupcakes, with a small round cake on the top. The guests enjoyed dancing the night away. They also had a lot of fun playing with the props at the photobooth.

One very special touch the bride and groom added was the gift they gave their guests. Amber and Robert sat down and picked out all of the songs that were meaningful to them and had a CD made. The songs picked were those that played at special moments in their relationship. They even had the song that was playing when they first met!

All-in-all it was a high energy event and we are so happy that we got to be a part of it.
